The ePL event is great news. Surely that should be RNSd.

Opened a position in GFIN this morning after watching for a while. With the recent fund raise they're financial secure in the near term and acceleration of highly visible events across primary sports can only help with their survival.The pending footy event is huge, could see a more sustained rise imo dyor ofc.

Late reported buy of 7,300,000 looks like bigger fish are coming in for GFIN

[mcfly79] 17/4/2020 10:11

I think it will take longer than 4 weeks.But the real long term benefit is that the shift to esports has now been accelerated and that change will stick, even after real sports come back online.

[pal44] 17/4/2020 10:00

err not to sure about going in I think in 4 weeks time the lockdown will be lifted and sports will be 'Real' no ..

How did I miss the RNS!

Great to see a recovery of sorts!

Bought more today, this is option money at 1.3p imho, will try to keep it for at least two years for at least a ten bagger, that is still only 13p.

[jungmana] 17/4/2020 08:55

Another good news today. GM on Tuesday and new shares should get listed on Thursday 23rd.

BetWay's marketing budget was £100m for 2019.





At the moment their traditional advertising channels (advertising in live sports events and sponsorship) will not be available. They will need alternative channels to drive traffic to their casino websites. Esports is the ideal alternative for them, so some of that marketing budget could be coming to Gfinity.

[mcfly79] 17/4/2020 07:40

More good news.

Another sport shifting to virtual games. Some big names in the world of Cricket taking part.

Great to see a partnership with BetWay too. They will have a huge marketing budget.

OK own up - who did the 2.7M and 1.125p?

[mcfly79] 15/4/2020 15:46

I think Gfinity are running other F1 events being streamed on the F1 YouTube channel.This one is a great format, where 19 F1 fans race against Lando Norris.There's a full video and this highlights video:hTTps://youtu.be/omGuxdiKWvg

[hazl] 15/4/2020 14:29

Perhaps the chart will turn up and form a 'w'?!

[mcfly79] 15/4/2020 14:23

Great to see that Codemasters have announced that F1 2020 will launch as scheduled in July.

We should have the Gfinity Esports series as usual in H2.

[lukehold] 14/4/2020 18:07

You'd have to expect Gfinity are planning something with the premier league given current working relationship and size of the opportunity. Match of the day could even cover it :)Here's a good overview of the F1 virtual Grand Prix.http://www.pushsquare.com/news/2020/04/feature_f1_esports_virtual_grand_prix_series_begins_to_gather_paceAlso saw 888 were covering live betting on it.
